RottieMeister Posted November 20, 2009 #1 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Hi, Can anyone tell me where is the best place to take a whale watching cruise on the Mexican Riviera. Is is Cabo or Puerta Vallarta? Can anyone reccomend any good companies? Thanks, Dwayne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruznjan Posted November 20, 2009 #2 Share Posted November 20, 2009 We didn't take a whale watching tour, but we saw whales in the Pacific while sailing between San Diego and Cabo San Lucas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puffinater Posted November 20, 2009 #3 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Have whale watched in Cabo twice once in December and once in Feb. Both times it was great. They get up close and seeing a breech is not uncommon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubrrick Posted November 20, 2009 #4 Share Posted November 20, 2009 I highly recommend whale watching off of Cabo. We have experienced some wonderful sightnings over the years there.:) Rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desert Cruizers Posted November 20, 2009 #5 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Depending on the month your going you may not see Whales. They say best months are Jan thru March. I would love to take a tour and see them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watertraveler Posted November 20, 2009 #6 Share Posted November 20, 2009 While on a cruise in the Sea of Cortez in February, we took an excursion across the baja to the Magdelana Bay. This is the grounds where the whales will winter. Words can not express the excitement we had. Small groups were sent out into the bay in 'pangas' and had VERY close encounters - to the point where we were able to see their eyes. A mother even pushed her calf up to the surface so that we got a better look at her baby! If you are there don't miss the opportunity to go on a whale watch.

SWACK Posted November 20, 2009 #7 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Our whale watching tour in Cabo in '08 was the highlight of our trip. It was on a beautiful sparsely populated and CLEAN boat, with a crew that catered to your every whim. Unlimited and great margaritas, snacks, and did I mention.. whales! Seriously, probably the best excursion I've ever booked.. try the RISSALENA, a white catamaran. I did a search and some things may have changed, but I booked through this email address... manuel rissacat@prodigy.net.mx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJ2sail Posted November 20, 2009 #8 Share Posted November 20, 2009 We went out of Puerto Vallarta last December and only saw one whale, but had a nice day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
